The death record therefore gives her age as 5 years younger than the census and birth records posted by AnnCardiff.
I suppose the informant didn't know her exact age.

There is a tree on Ancestry (possibly yours) that has a photo of her but no more info than you have. If it isn't your tree you could contact the owner to see if they have any more info.

If you don't have access to Ancestry, you can view the tree on the Mundia site.

HI
Can anyone tell me where can I find out what "ORDER" a nun belongs to?
My granddads older sister became a nun some time around 1898 or after, she was in Notre Dame training college & Convent in Liverpool, I contacted them and they sent the info that I had on her, to some other place, but they said they could not find any thing on her, but if I could find out what" order" she was in they would try again. On 1891 census she was living at home @ clement st.#1 in 8 court with her family, on the the 1901 census she is at the convent and down as Mary Cath Ryan,age 21 single Laundress servant, we where told that she bacame a nun in cloisters in France where she died in the mid 1970's, unfortunately any family members that knew her, have all passed away and and I have lived in Canada since 1965, so had lost touch with that side of my family, I have all her brothers and sisters listed on my tree also, so if any one can help in any way, it would be gratefully appreciated,
